  • The connections to the battery in my iphone 4 have broken how can i at least back my phone up before i take it too apple?

    My screen stuffed up so i removed the battery but in this process i must havent torn the connections to the battery and now it just doesnt turn on unless i plug into my laptop and all that happens is the little apple logo comes uo for like 10 - 15 seconds then goes, any help would be much appreicated.

    Apple will not touch it now that you've opened it. It is no longer eligible for an out of warranty replacement.

  • Can't update the software on my iPhone and iPod on iTunes

    I know I've seen other topics about this problem, but I can't figure out what's wrong or how to fix it. Every time I connect my iPhone or iPod iTunes asks me if I would like to download and install the new software available for my devices, but it won't let me. It says that iTunes can't connect with the iPod software update server because I'm not connected to the internet. If someone could please help me to figure this out would be awesome.

    The solution to this problem is described by this Apple support article:

  • I get an alert about the registry settings are missing and to reinstall iTunes.  It did that and still get the warning.  ITunes won't recognize my iPhone as a result.

    I get an alert saying "The registry settings used by the iTunes drivers for importing and burning CDs and DVDs are missing. This can happen as a result of installing other CD burning software.  Please reinstall iTunes."  I reinstalled iTunes, restarted pc, and I checked what other CD/DVD burning software by searching on DVD.  Results: Cyberlink DVD suite deluxe, HP Smartmedia DVD , and Windows DVD Maker, all of which I've had forever.  Should I delete these and try to reinstall iTunes again?  Are there other reasons that this message pops up?

    Got the same Pop-up and Apple Sppt told me that UNinstalling Quicktime had fixed this issue in most other cases. I asked IF I had to start over with Uninstalling iTunes, and she answered Yes.
    Read my too-long thread (below) that has an Apple Sppt link at the start about Manual Deletes of several Apple Folders/files being a Key to a proper Uninstall / Re-install of iTunes.
    Do as much as you want but this is what experience led me to so far. We haven't done it yet since the iPhone Sync'd OK and CD burning is not a priority.

  • Questions about the future directions of InfoPath and Microsoft Access

    Because I have been confused about the future directions of InfoPath and Access, I wrote a short blog post, which I have pasted below.  My question is, can Microsoft provide some more guidance on Access vs InfoPath?  If Access is indeed the
    the future direction, can you please provide some pointers to resources that can help us transition.
    A Short Review of MS Access,  SharePoint ,InfoPath (2013)
    After the November 2012 SharePoint Conference in Las Vegas (#spc12) there were a number of blog posts and people saying that Access 2013 was great and would be replacing InfoPath.
    Marc Anderson and
    Ruven
    Gotz have short posts summarizing #SPC12 and touch on the subject of InfoPath and Access.  I also spoke with several individuals shortly after #SPC12 and they were excited about Access 2013.
    Since I rely heavily on InfoPath for much of what I do, I wanted to kick the tires and see what everyone was talking about.  First, a few notes about SharePoint 2013 and Office 2013.
    Microsoft should rename Access:  If you have tried to
    bing the word Access, then you know that the search results are overwhelming,  because the word "access" is used for so many other purposes.
    Use the RTM version of Office 2013! I was performing  my investigations by leveraging the Office 365 Beta and the Office Applications that come with it.  Not much was working!  After I uninstalled the Beta
    version of Office 2013 and Installed the RTM version everything seemed to work. 
    Windows 7 and IE 9.0: The drag & drop that is being touted as
    "manna from heaven" seems to work well with Firefox, Safari, Chrome, and IE 10, but it does
    not work with IE 9!
    Non Microsoft browsers are still second class citizens (except for the drag & drop):  Microsoft has finally done away with the Active X's for datasheet view (that is brilliant!)  One can now see the newly
    minted datasheet view in many browsers.  But I still find that one needs to be in IE to do a number of key manual opeartions.  For example pasting numerous rows of data from a spreadsheet into the new sheet view works only in IE.
    Access 2013
    Microsoft Access is touted as a non developer tool.  I know a number of people who are on the business side and love Access.  These people will like the renewed energy that Microsoft has applied to Access.   One should note that conceptually
    this functionality existed  in SharePoint 2010.  Here is what I see that is new:
    +The new version works better:Although I haven't tested it fully, it seems that many more features that work on the Desktop version of Access, now work in the published Web Application which is hosted by SharePoint 2013.
    +The new version has fairly robust browser based forms: End users can now fill in data using forms that are rendered in the browser.
    +The published version that resides in SharePoint now uses its own SQL server tables.  So the engine appears to be SQL Server, not a modified version of Access built for a server.  This stands to be quite robust, but I imagine
    that some quirks will surface due to new model.
    The limitations are:
    - Access is pretty much its own application and does not integrate with SharePoint building blocks.  For example, an Access table is not easy to integrate with a SharePoint workflow.  Further, although  Access forms now are visible
    in a browser, they are not nearly as rich as InfoPath forms.  InfoPath forms cannot easily integrate with the Access tables.  In order to integrate SharePoint features and Access, one needs to tie SharePoint list(s) to Access as data sources. 
    This overcomplicates the model and one may very well run into synchronization issues.
    In short, although I believe there will be some people who will be happy with newly minted Access, I do not think that Access will be able to replace InfoPath and Workflow technologies.  I do agree that Microsoft does not seem to have put much energy into
    InfoPath.  If they leave a vacuum in this space, then others may very well take over, for instance Nintex Forms.

    Although I agree with the comments made by Ruven and Marc after the conference please note that those blog posts are their own personal opinions and that they don't work for Microsoft.  A lot of people have asked Microsoft to clarify the future of InfoPath
    and the response up until now has been a deafening silence.  In my opinion speculations about Access replacing InfoPath are premature.
    I should also point out that most of your comments about Access 2013 above are actually about Access Services in SharePoint Server 2013.  Access Services are NOT Access they are a shared service offering in SharePoint that convert and publish Access
    databases and forms.  As you point out once an Access database is published through Access services it is converted to SQL Server and no longer resides in Access.  Of course I don't work for Microsoft either so these are all just my personal opinion. 
    Having said that I doubt you will get the confirmation/response that you are hoping for from any official Microsoft channel.

  • Mid-2013 Macbook Air: question about the battery life

    First of all, I'm sorry if these questions have been already asked, I've looked around and I've seen some answers, but none that fit my specific case.
    I have had this computer since December (Macbook Air, 13'', Mid-2013), I've been using it for a month now. At the beginning, I used to use it until my battery was low (between 10 and 20%) and then charge it. Then I learnt that it's better to keep it plugged as much as possible (I have read this in other discussions and on the Apple page). The problem is that my battery is no longer a 100% of its capacity according to Cococnut Battery. It started with 99%, then back to 100%, then 98, 97... and now it varies from 97 to 98 (right now it says that my computer's current capacity is 6948 mAH). I don't know if this is normal, or if this is caused by the use I used to give to my macbook air at the beginning or by any other thing. I also have 19 loadcycles already. Besides, I have noticed that sometimes it jumps form 100% to 99% of battery pretty fast when I don't have it plugged, and I'm not sure if that happened before.
    This is my first time dealing with a macbook and I don't know how these things are supposed to work, and I'm worried my battery might have any kind of problem and that's why itdoesn't have full capacity anymore, since I've been using it for only a month.
    Also, sometimes it takes a little while to shut down. It usually takes 2 seconds, but sometimes it takes longer, maybe 20 seconds (first the screen turn white, then the loading icon appears and then it finally shuts down). Is this normal too for macbook airs?
    Thanks for the help!

    Those are only averages, for purposes of the battery 97 98 99 and 100 are the 'same thing'........theyre all estimates.
    Normal on shut down, sometimes you can see a few seconds, sometimes 10, 15 seconds shut down.....depends on what and HOW much its shutting down before poweroff.   Normal.
    ON BATTERY USE:
    Keep it plugged in when near a socket so you keep the charging cycles down on your LiPo (lithium polymer) cells / battery, but not plugged in all the time. When not being used for several hours, turn it off.
    http://www.apple.com/batteries/notebooks.html
    "Apple does not recommend leaving your portable plugged in all the time."
    General rule to remember of Lithium batteries is:
    Never drain them LOW  & dont always/often store them HIGH
    While cycle count is commonly seen to be the “miles” on your Lithium Ion pack cell in your Macbook, which they are, this distinction is not a fine line at all, and it is a big misconception to “count charge cycles”
    *A person who has, for example, 300 charge cycles on their battery and is recharging at say 50-60% remaining of a 100% charge has better battery usage and care than another person who has 300 charge cycles at say 15% remaining on a 100% charge. 
    DoD (depth of discharge) is far more important on the wear and tear on your Macbook battery than any mere charge cycle count.  *There is no set “mile” or wear from a charge cycle in general OR in specific.    As such, contrary to popular conception, counting cycles is not conclusive whatsoever, rather the amount of deep DoD on an averaged scale of its use and charging conditions.
                              (as a very rough analogy would be 20,000 hard miles put on a car vs. 80,000 good miles being something similar)
    *Contrary to some myths out there, there is protection circuitry in your Macbook and therefore you cannot overcharge it when plugged in and already fully charged
    *However if you don’t plan on using it for a few hours, turn it OFF (plugged in or otherwise) ..*You don’t want your Macbook both always plugged in AND in sleep mode       (When portable devices are charging and in the on or sleep position, the current that is drawn through the device is called the parasitic load and will alter the dynamics of charge cycle. Battery manufacturers advise against parasitic loading because it induces mini-cycles.)
    Keeping batteries connected to a charger ensures that periodic "top-ups" do very minor but continuous damage to individual cells, hence Apples recommendation above:   “Apple does not recommend leaving your portable plugged in all the time”, …this is because “Li-ion degrades fastest at high state-of-charge”.
                        This is also the same reason new Apple notebooks are packaged with 50% charges and not 100%.
    LiPo (lithium polymer, same as in your Macbook) batteries do not need conditioning. However...
    A lot of battery experts call the use of Lithium cells the "80% Rule" ...meaning use 80% of the charge or so, then recharge them for longer overall life.
    Never let your Macbook go into shutdown and safe mode from loss of power, you can corrupt files that way, and the batteries do not like it.
    The only quantified abuse seen to Lithium cells are instances when often the cells are repeatedly drained very low…. key word being "often"
    Contrary to what some might say, Lithium batteries have an "ideal" break in period. First ten cycles or so, don't discharge down past 40% of the battery's capacity. Same way you don’t take a new car out and speed and rev the engine hard first 100 or so miles.
    Proper treatment is still important. Just because LiPo batteries don’t need conditioning in general, does NOT mean they dont have an ideal use / recharge environment. Anything can be abused even if it doesn’t need conditioning.
    From Apple on batteries:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1446
    http://www.apple.com/batteries/
    Storing your MacBook
    If you are going to store your MacBook away for an extended period of time, keep it in a cool location (room temperature roughly 22° C or about 72° F). Make certain you have at least a 50% charge on the internal battery of your Macbook if you plan on storing it away for a few months; recharge your battery to 50% or so every six months roughly if being stored away. If you live in a humid environment, keep your Macbook stored in its zippered case to prevent infiltration of humidity on the internals of your Macbook which could lead to corrosion.
    Considerations:
    Your battery is subject to chemical aging even if not in use. A Lithium battery is aging as soon as its made, regardless.
    In a perfect (although impractical) situation, your lithium battery is best idealized swinging back and forth between 20 and 85% SOC (state of charge) roughly.
    Further still how you discharge the battery is far more important than how it is either charged or stored short term, and more important long term that cycle counts.
    Ultimately counting charge cycles is of little importance.  Abuse in discharging (foremost), charging, and storing the battery and how it affects battery chemistry is important and not the ‘odometer’ reading, or cycle counts on the battery. 
    Everything boils down to battery chemistry long term, and not an arbitrary number, or cycle count.
    Keep your macbook plugged in when near a socket since in the near end of long-term life, this is beneficial to the battery.
    Peace

  • Intriguing about the battery in my new MBP

    Hi everyone
    I got two days ago my first mac wich is a macbook pro 13" from 2010. I've red all there is to read about the use of the battery on the Internet and on the Apple website and so far I have only done complete charges with it. (I wait until the battery is to 0% and then i plug it until the battery is at 100%).
    I can use my macbook for about 6 hours without using wifi (ethernet, plus some videos watching).
    I have downloaded the widget istat nano to see how is my battery and apparently with 6 cyles, I have a battery health of 100% and 5802m).
    First of all I wanted to know if the numbers are ok ?
    Finally I wanted to know if I use the battery correctly so far ? Should I let it plug longer ? Some people are also saying that it is not good to let the battery fall under 5% before plugging it. Is it true ?
    Here we go, thanks for all your answers and sorry if some questions are dumb, I just want to keep my mac as long as I can and not bother Apple directly with my questions if they are stupid.
    Thanks

    Eh, batteries are fickle things, gooey chemistry and all that. Factors include time since the battery, not the battery pack was manufactured, temperature, temperature variance the battery's been exposed to and any thermal shock, drain amount and cycles, quality and purity of chemical batches used in manufacture, and for all I know phase-of-the-moon! IMHO the only thing more "voodoo science" in electronics than batteries is antenna design!
    But you're right I seem to have lucked out on the battery in my new MBP 17", the one that came with my late-2008 Unibody MB lost 5% of it's health in the first few days of use and then got on the expected decline thereafter. Expectation and usually specification is 70-80% of capacity after 3 years. The annoying thing with Lithium batteries is that the clock starts ticking on their capacity as soon as they roll off the production line, no matter if they get used or not! Tip: Make sure any replacement Lithium battery you get is "fresh" and definitely not used (I'm looking at you eBay!)

  • Some questions about the battery

    I have a couple of questions about the battery in general.
    Is it normal that my iPod Touch 4G charges very fast? It reaches 60% in only one hour and it's fully charged before it takes two hours. I know this is not bad but I'm just worried. How can I be sure if it's really loaded?
    Is it normal that the battery is very quick empty when I'm gaming? For now I'm blaming this due to the quick charge.
    Is it normal that for example my battery level is at 30% and when I put on standby or something or close a game, the battery starts rising for approx. 5% even 10% sometimes?
    Those are my question, I hope they are clear enough. Thanks in advance.
    Regards

    1. The tech specs says:
    Charging times: Fast charge in about 2 hours (80% capacity), full charge in about 4 hours
    2. Heavy use like gaming drains the batery fater then other use. The tech specs say:
    Video playback time: Up to 7 hours when fully charged
    3.. Yes, the indicate capacity tends to rise after heary draining is stopped.  The battery indicator is not that accurate is affected by temperature. Heavy use increases battery temperature and when it decreases battery temperature decreases.
